What does Gold Filled Mean

Gold-filled jewelry is more dependable than gold-plated or vermeil because 1/20 of the piece’s total weight is solid gold.  Gold-plated items contain less than 1/200 of the piece's total weight in solid gold.  It is also heat and mechanically bonded to enhance its strength. This means that gold-filled jewelry lasts much longer than pieces subjected to other coating methods, often lasting decades or a lifetime of wear before the base metal starts to show.
Gold-filled jewelry is marked with a “GF” and sometimes shows the proportion of gold in its total weight, presented as a fraction.

Who is LuAnn Reichow?

I'm thrilled to share my love for jewelry with the world through my hand-crafted creations.  Each piece in my collections is made with care with 1/20 14k yellow gold-filled materials.  They feature lab-grown diamonds, cubic zirconia, and natural gemstones.  My goal is to create affordable, fun, and durable jewelry that can be worn every day, not just for special occasions.

I hope that my designs bring joy and a sense of beauty to everyone who wears them.  Thank you for supporting my dream, and I hope you enjoy my jewelry as much as I love creating it.
